Be creative in implementing ways to increase consumption and engage the school community and families at large regarding Red Rabbit's value add in the cafeteria.
- ** Administrative Duties**:Communicate with Head Chefs and, as necessary, Kitchen Managers at the commissary kitchen on a daily basis to troubleshoot any in-the-moment issues, share best practices, preview upcoming menu changes, and solicit feedback. Ensure recipe development is done in tandem with food cost analysis to stay within budget. Maintain Red Rabbit's data information systems so that all kitchens are working from up-to-date information. Ensure DOH, CACFP, and NSLP compliance targets are met.
**Skills & Requirements**

- 5+ years of professional culinary experience in a fast paced role either in the service industry (i.e. restaurant management) and/or managing high-volume kitchen production (i.e. commissary kitchen). Strong preference given to farm-to-table or scratch-cooking experience.
